ASUS XG-C100C V3 10GBase-T PCIe Network Adapter
The ASUS XG-C100C V3 10GBase-T PCIe Network Adapter delivers up to 10 Gbps wired network speeds for workstations and gaming systems that need high-throughput data access. It uses a standard RJ45 connection and works with existing Category 5e cables, offering backward compatibility with 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100 Mbps networks. Built-in QoS prioritizes gaming traffic to reduce latency.
Why this product
10 Gbps speeds with standard copper cables
Delivers 10× faster throughput than gigabit Ethernet using ordinary RJ45 cables and Category 5e wiring within 30 m range, eliminating the need for costly fiber installation.
Backward compatible with older network standards
Automatically negotiates 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G or 100 Mbps depending on what your network supports, so it works seamlessly with existing infrastructure.
Built-in QoS for gaming
Prioritizes gaming packets to reduce latency and stuttering during online play, even under heavy network load.
Windows and Linux support
Works with Windows 11, Windows 10 and Linux Kernel for flexible deployment across desktop operating systems.
